Isis is the goddess that is wearing a headdress. She is wearing a throne on top of her head. The throne is to represent her place as queen of the gods. She is wearing the headdress holding up a vulture. Isis is usually shown with wings. Many goddesses are also shown with wings as Isis is shown sometimes.She also has on her head a pair of cow horns and a sun disc.
Isis is the goddess of many things and also responsible for many things of what she and others do. She is responsible for mothers, marriage, love, and magic. Isis was always doing magic so she could make things better for people in need. She was very protective of people every now and then. Isis's mother is Nut. Her husband was Osiris and she had a child with him witch as many people know was Horus.
Isis's temple is very big but small to the ancient pyramids. Inside of this temple were blocks to sit on. They used camel skin to put over that and to use for blankets. While building this temple people had to be small to fit in places so they could make entry ways that only curtain people could find and get in. The stones that held this temple together were tan with dirt everywhere. They also tried to hide the temple from others, so they grew grass and plants over the temple. As you can see that would be hard with the temperature in Egypt. Some how the pulled it off. Isis had many things burred with her. Her belongings and many other things that were important to her. I would also put her family of statues around her temple to protect it and because I am pretty sure that her family is and was important to her.
